Those are your exact words, Joe. That's what you advocated.
You are advocating a do-over after a player has committed an obvious violation. You are advocating officials to completely ignore NFHS rule 9-2-1.
In my opinion, you do
not understand what the mechanic entails. Your advice above is
wrong, again imo. Also, imo, the "newer officials and officials who aren't sure" shouldn't believe me or you. They should check with their local rules interpreter.
Is that clear enough for you?
